Quarto (10" x 6 3/4") bound in original publisher's stiff wrappers. Viking Fund Publication in Anthropology, number 49. First edition. For many years anthropologists have speculated about primitive warfare, its place in a particular culture, its form, and its consequences on other tribes. This full-scale ethnography of the Dugum Dani centers on the issue of hostility between groups of human beings and the place and function of violence. Warfare, like rituals and kinship alliances, is part of a total culture, and for this reason Professor Heider has approached the Dani from a holistic point of view. Other aspects of Dani life and organization are shown in interrelationship with the institution of warfare, such as the social, ecological, and technological elements in the Dani way of life. Professor Heider examines particularly the role of warfare itself in terms of the particular needs, and lack of them. The first section of this book documents the Dani and their warfare and provides one of the most detailed accounts of tribal life available. The second section focuses on the material aspects of Dani culture, to explore the interrelationships of the material objects with the other aspects of Dani culture; this analysis is especially interesting since the Dani moved from a stone-age culture to steel tools during the period of study itself. Professor Heider also notes the distinctive aspects of Dani culture; the paucity of color, number, and other attribute terms, the near absence of art; their five-year post-partum sexual abstinence, and other traits that seem to suggest that the Dani have little interest in intellectual elaboration or sex, and that despite their warfare, they are not a particularly aggressive people. Including previously unpublished photographs and descriptions of tribal life and warfare, this book provides anthropologists with a full and vivid account of Dani culture and with new insights into the general problems of human aggression.

This book explores the development of enamel art in medieval Western Europe and its connection to the historical, religious, and social contexts of the time. It begins by discussing the history of enamel art from its origins in the Byzantine Empire, through its adoption and adaptation by Western European artists, to its eventual emergence as a distinct and highly skilled craft. The author traces the evolution of enamel techniques, from the cloisonnà style of the early Middle Ages to the more naturalistic styles of the later periods.They also examine the role of enamel art in religious and secular life, from its use in the decoration of churches and monasteries to its use in the creation of jewelry and other decorative objects.Through detailed descriptions of specific pieces, the book provides a comprehensive overview of the development of enamel art in medieval Western Europe and its significance as a medium of artistic expression and a testament to the skill and creativity of medieval artisans. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
